Which team was the top seed in the 2019 Overwatch League regular season?

The top seed in the 2019 Overwatch League regular season was the Vancouver Titans.

Vancouver finished the regular season with a 25–3 match record and led the Pacific Division. Under the league’s playoff-seeding rules, the two division winners received the first two seeds, followed by the next-best teams and play-in qualifiers.

A common mix-up is San Francisco Shock, which had the league’s best overall match record at 23–5 and a stronger map differential than Vancouver. However, the Shock were the Pacific Division’s other leading team and entered the playoffs as the third seed, while Vancouver received the No. 1 seed. The New York Excelsior were seeded second at 22–6.

Vancouver ultimately reached the Grand Finals, where San Francisco defeated them to win the 2019 championship. The Titans’ regular-season seeding and their eventual runner-up finish are separate facts from the Shock’s superior record and title victory.
